In this study, the addition of Sweet lupin seeds flour (SLSF) in different levels (5, 10 and 15%) to wheat flour (WF) was evaluated. Dough mixing properties, bread physical characteristics and sensory properties were investigated. Increasing SLSF level in the SLSF-WF composites led to an increased water absorption, dough development time, C4 and setback torque, while it decreased flour moisture...

Abstract In this research, we are going to take out investigate flexural strength and tensile properties of composite material with the using epoxy resin bagasse fibre in powder form. These composites bonded hardener mixed appropriate volume. This was prepared form used different ratio each which found high at 5gm both Tensile Flexural strength. Here for preparing specimen Hand layup method. It...

Bagasse flour (BF) was liquefied using bi-component polyhydric alcohol (PA) as a solvent and phosphoric acid as a catalyst in a microwave reactor. The effect of BF to solvent ratio and reaction temperatures on the liquefaction extent and characteristics of liquefied products were evaluated. The results revealed that almost 75% of the raw bagasse was converted into liquid products within 9 min a...

This work aims at examining the physical, chemical and functional properties of composite flour produced with cassava, rice, soybean flours, and potato starch and added with 0.5% xanthan gum. Nine blends of composite flours were prepared by homogenously mixing rice flour, cassava flour, soybean flour, and potato starch (RF:CF:SF:PS) in the proportions of 30:50:15:4.5, 30:45:20:4.5, 30:40:25:4.5...

The fiber characteristics (i.e., the fiber type, morphology, and dimension) and polymer melt flow index (MFI) significantly affected mechanical properties of sugarcane fiber/HDPE composites. The length and diameter of sugarcane fibers followed a lognormal distribution before and after compounding. The long fibers had a significant reduction in the dimension and aspect ratio during compounding. ...

This paper investigates the potential of recycling waste copper chromium and arsenic (CCA)-treated timber for use as a reinforcement material in wood–plastic composites (WPCs) produced construction, including an assessment mechanical properties leaching heavy metals. Wood flour was obtained through grinding, fibres were alkaline digestion followed by bleaching. Composites with 40 wt.% bleached ...

The flexural properties of commercial bagasse-filled polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP) composites were determined as a function of strain rate at room temperature. The applied strain rates were 1.5 ×10, 3.75×10, 7.5×10, and 1.5×10 s. The flexural modulus tended to increase linearly for the two types of composites with the logarithm of strain rate. The bending strength of polypropylene co...

The objective of the present work is to compare some different crop products such as protein isolates and defatted whole flours from legumes, as chickpea and soy bean, involved in the molded compression processing to obtain plastics. The present work analysed the possibility of forming new plastic materials with products of chickpea, and soy bean seeds typically from the North West of Argentina...

the influence of maleic anhydride-polypropylene (mapp) (0, 2, 3 and 5%) as a compatibilizer on the wettability of polypropylene/wood flour/glass fiber hybrid composites was studied by using the contact angle determination technique. sample slats with a cross section of 10×70 mm were made by a twin screw extruder. specimens were conditioned at room temperature and the angles between the water dr...
